Here's To New Beginnings

I started writing music in my young 20s using FastTracker 2 and borrowed samples. After a few years of that, I stopped writing... until now.

I started writing in late Sept 2024, after my back surgery to remove cancer from my spine. The music was a way to distract myself from all the pain I was feeling. I wrote 100% of the lyrics to the songs, but used Suno.AI to help create the music and perform the song. Since then, I have moved onto better things. I am now transcribing some of my old songs and having them performed and mastered by the professionals at Musiversal. The process is a lot slower, but I feel the quality is going to be much better.

I release music under different band names to partition out what genres folks want to listen to. I currently have three:

• Shane Watson
  
• ShadowHawkX
• NightHawkX

Each of them features music from rock, EDM, and metal, respectively. I do this because not everything I write can fit well within just one genre. My hope is that you find something that resonates with you and helps you through your day. I'm still on the road to recovery from my cancer. Every sale goes towards keeping my music alive and well, as it is difficult to pay off old medical debt while trying to create new music and distribute it.
